Darkseid vs. Galactus: The Hunger

    (DC, 1995)
©1995 DC Comics, Inc. and Marvel Entertament Group

Two cosmic heavyweights from the Marvel Comics universe and DC Comics universe meet up in this one-shot special. Marvel’s Galactus is an awesome entity who devours entire worlds to sustain him. After wandering the spaceways for ages, he comes across the blasted world of Apokolips. This planetary hell is ruled by DC’s Darkseid, an incredibly powerful force of evil. Although his world is little more than a dead sphere hanging in space, Darkseid uses all his power to defend it. He sends both his own dog soldiers and his son Orion into battle against Galactus and his herald, the Silver Surfer. When powers such as these collide, who can predict the victor?

In addition to serving as a meeting of the Marvel and DC universes, this special is also something of a reunion of characters created by the late, great Jack Kirby. His was the original rendition of Galactus, The Silver Surfer, Darkseid, and the rest of the New Gods.
